Volume XV, num- ber 2, 1990, the first, is a tribute to Bai Tamia Moore (1920-1988). Here, we pause to salute Mary Antoinette Brown Sherman, a path-setting female Liberian educator and scholar, who passed away in June 2004. This introduction offers brief descriptions of a mix of tributes and articles. Follow- ing tributes from her family and the government of Liberia, we begin with an article by Dr. Sherman which was written in 1983 and articulates a progressive conception of the role of the University of Liberia in Liberian national society. Three other items also by her follow. The first, her presidential address to the Liberian Research Association in 1968, speaks to academic research challenges of that era. The second is an insightful interview which she accorded The Liberian Professional Exchange in 1988, while the third is a biographical dictionary of two generations of the female Barclays in Liberia. In succession then follow tributes by high school classmate A. Romeo Horton, and college classmate Bertha Baker Azango. Each shed light on Dr. Sherman's childhood and early education formation, Azango highlighting some three decades of profes- sional collaboration. Former Dean of the Science College Agnes Cooper Dennis aptly calls her piece "a profile of courage in the history and life of the University of Liberia" as she recounts a quarter century of Dr. Sherman's collaborative work in the institution's transitioning from the old Liberia College to a modern University deliberately designed to serve Liberia. D. Evelyn S. Kandakai, Liberia's current Education Minister and herself a professional educator, initiates an assessment of Dr. Sherman's contributions to educa- tion in Liberia. Before his own sudden death in December 2004, Prof. Raymond Smyke, biogra- pher of the Vai-Liberian diplomat Momolu Massaquoi, paid glowing tribute reflecting years of work within the National Teachers Association of Liberia, and the Swiss-based World Confederation of Organizations of the Teaching Profession (WCOTP). Former University of Liberia President Patrick L.N. Seyon's tribute captures the core of her leadership ethos and her singular contributions

McNutt University of Northern Iowa May 2019 ABSTRACT Despite the Accra Comprehensive Peace Agreement calling the end to Liberia’s back-to-back civil wars in 2003, Liberia’s peace remains fragile with a high number of out of school children, especially in rural communities. As an indicator of state fragility, rural education needs to be a priority in post-conflict reconstruction. This thesis emerged to support the nongovernmental organization, Supporting Programs in Community Empowerment (SPICE), an emerging Liberian-based nongovernmental organization.
